Lord, it’s an important envelope with two letters in it from friends
in another country. It has an address and phone number we have to have.
Please show me where it is.

I thought it was—

I think I put—

I know it was—

As I shower, shampoo, dress, and make our bed, one version or another of this
quest is uppermost in my thoughts and I tell God about it. Rushing from one
chore to another my hands are busy with all sorts of "mindless" tasks.
My mind is also rushing from one possibility to another, as I again order
the Lord to hurry up and cooperate.

Could it be—?

Why didn’t I—?

Do you suppose—?

Suddenly He stopped me in mid-action. The audacity of giving orders to The
Sovereign Kings of Kings! Immediately I accepted the chastisement. I felt
ashamed, and asked His forgiveness. Repentance ignited the sweet Presence of His
Holy Spirit. I sensed His love, His care, His grace. "Ask and it shall
be given unto you, seek and you will find." Matthew 7:7 My whole being
relaxed as I sensed the Presence of the living, loving Lord; what a privilege!

Did I find it yet? No, but I will! You see I have a Helper.

P.S. We found it! Thank You, Heavenly Father; but what about my
loved one in the hospital with possible surgery tomorrow? From an envelope,
to a dear one’s life, God loves to hear and answer according to His will. We
can trust Him.

What a privilege!
